Intro: 

Bm7 -  D (riff)


D (xx0232@1)           D/C# (x40232@1)          Bmin (x2022x@1)Bmin7(2)
I sense a runner in the garden
G (320003@1)                           		         A7 (x02020@1) A6Although (x04xxx@1)my judgment's known to fail
D (xx0232@1)        D/C# (x40232@1)BminBmin7(2) (x2022x@1)Once built a steamboat in a meadow
G (320003@1)                     	        A7 (x02020@1)name="chord_x04xxx@1">A6
Cause I'd forgotten how to sail


G (320003@1)               A7 (x02020@1)           D (xx0232@1)(riff)
I know the runner's going to tell you
G (320003@1)                   A7 (x02020@1)                  D(riff) (xx0232@1)There ain't no cowboy in my hair
G (320003@1)               A7 (x02020@1)                 D (xx0232@1)(riff)
So now he's buried by the daisies
G (320003@1)                       	       A7 (x02020@1)              
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe

I sense a spy up in the chimney
From all the evidence I've burned
I guess he'll read it in the smoke now
And soon to ashes I'll return

I know the spy is going to tell you
It's not my flag up in the pole
So now he's buried by the lilies
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe

I sense a leak inside my phone now
From all the lies I have told
I know he has your private number
And soon he'll make that vicious call

I know the leak is going to tell you
There ain't now puppy in your leash
So now he'll fertilize the roses
So I could stay the king you see
In your eyes, babe (x2)
